I called BH Garage Door because my garage door would not go up because the motor was shot. Technician: Guillermo Navarrete from BH Garage Door was surprisingly early, and I did not have to wait until 4:00 p.m. the technician came in analyzed the problem, told me that I needed a motor. I approved the charges and he began to install the motor. A little later on because of his Professionalism he surveyed the outline of the garage door and discovered every part. The bracket, cable, the round wheels on each side of the garage door, that causes the garage to go up and down, the bolts on the garage door were totally rusted out. It was just a matter of time before the garage door collapsed. Needless to say I had the technician replaced everything that needed to be replaced. The technician was thorough, took his time checked and rechecked every aspect of his work including photograph, and the whole nine yards to ensure that I would have no further problems. Throughout life I've dealt with many businesses, but I can assure anyone that's reading this comment, if you want a Professional job, you want courtesy and respect, and you want to be Happy about spending the money that you just spent? Then I strongly suggest that you called BH Garage Door!

Garage Door Spring Replacement Cost of Parts and Labor

It can be extremely difficult to replace garage door springs, and it should be done by an expert. You don’t want to risk further damaging your garage door or injury to yourself. Instead, you’ll want to hire a garage door repair company. There is no universal repair price chart, as all companies charge their own prices for labor.

Can I DIY Repair My Garage Door?

Generally speaking, you should call a professional for any garage door repair. Garage door components, such as springs and rollers, are under a significant amount of pressure and can cause serious injury if they break. An expert garage door repair company understands how to fix doors quickly and safely.

How Often Should I Replace My Garage Door?

You may need to replace your garage door 20 and 50 years, depending on its material, weather, and maintenance schedule. However, circumstances can vary and your door might require replacement before its natural lifespan is up. Scheduling an inspection from a professional garage door repair company can help you determine your door’s lifespan.

What Is R-Value?

R-value tells you how effective of an insulator a material is. R-values are important for garage doors because heat can escape from your garage. The higher a material’s R-value, the more effective of an insulator it is. For example, a solid wood garage door has an R-value of about 2.17, while a fiberglass door may have an R-value of 5.

 

How Large Is The Average Garage Door?

The typical single-car garage door is about eight feet wide by seven feet tall. Double car garage doors are about 16 feet wide by seven feet tall. However, you can design a custom garage door to be as large as you need it.

Should I Insulate My Garage Door?

Yes, insulating your garage door is a great investment that can significantly reduce energy consumption during the fall and winter. Homeowners can reduce their annual energy bills by up to 20% by insulating their garage door and sealing their home’s exterior. 

What Is The Best Garage Door Material?

The best garage door material depends on your specific needs. In terms of durability, steel is the strongest common garage door material but is a poor insulator. Fiberglass is a highly insulated material that boasts decent durability, whereas wood provides a luxurious appearance. Aluminum is a good material if you need a lightweight garage door for a chain or belt drive opener.
